The Meaning and Metaphysics of Allaha

The Aramaic word for 'God' is Allaha. It is closely related to the Hebrew 'Elohim.' The Aramaic word for YHWH (Hashem, Jehovah and Yahweh in their myriad forms) is Maryah. Maryah simply means 'lord' as master, but has been retired from any use but 'Lord' as God.

'Allaha' represents Allahoota, the Godhead of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. When scripture says 'Allaha,' you are getting the whole package. All of God -- Allaha -- is one thing, one being. We make distinctions of his forms and methods, levels and activities in order to make sense of it all. It is hard for us to put it all together.

I know that my blog is read by people interested in manifesting things and situations for themselves. I am not. I am interested in the metaphysics of the Big Guy, the Ineffable Most High Beyond-Being of whom we are. If he does not pique your interest, I am at a loss as to explain you. There is not anything else that matters. All that is the Ineffable is extended from ourselves. Why are we not more like him? We are him in what he is doing right here and right now. He is us in this we are doing. We just cannot see the rest, yet.

Anyway, because of my interest in metaphysics I enjoyed Victor Alexander's explanation of the meaning of Allaha (http://www.v-a.com/revelations-of-the-milta.html):

The Meaning of Allaha

The Bible begins with the creation of our world in simple terms. It depicts the birth of Adam and Eve as two human beings in Paradise -- a perfect world where the first man and the first woman live in harmony with all the other creatures. In this world no one grows old or dies. All knowledge is good. There is one ruler, who is portrayed as Allaha (God in English.)

The word Allaha itself, in the language of the Scriptures, represents the Light that was the spark of the world. 'Al' means 'over' and 'la-ha' means the flame; in other words, 'Above the Light,' 'Above the Flame,' 'Above All,' or 'The Creator.'

The original Light was depicted as the ruler of Paradise. This is what the word 'Allaha' means. This word is different in almost all the languages of the world, because it is described according to the cultural perspective of the people that believe in the whole concept of 'creation.'


The Bible is written in such simple terms it is hard to associate its images with the complexity of the metaphysical REALITY. Adam and Eve appear to be two historical people until one realizes that they are one person existent in imagination only. Consciousness alone, actually. They live in harmony with natures that are only defined, as they themselves (Adam and Eve) are. In this world which is to be, there is one ruler: Allaha. Let's try to pull together the ideas about Allaha.

Alexander provides us a challenge: Allaha represents the Light or Flame which was the spark of the world. Yet it means Above-the-Light. The Light is the ruler of Paradise, as is Allaha. What is this aboveness and being?

Let me insist that by 'spark' is meant imagination. The spark by which anything comes about is imagination. Ideas ignight. The intelligence (Light) of the Ineffable is power to become, and it becomes whatever it believes it is in imagining. The Ineffable imagines, and imagining is the spark which ignights intelligence into being. This seems straightforward enough to me that even I can understand it.

The imagination of the Ineffable Most High is the spark of his intelligence/Light becoming. It is ruler of the world, Allaha. But Allaha is the WHOLE of the Godhead. It includes the Ineffable IMAGINER, the imagining Consciousness, and the Manifestation imagined. Thus it is above the Light and is the Light, and is us. This is why we pray with the idea of "Dad" in our minds and our unity with him, and why prayer is imagining with faith. Even I can understand it.

The Frame of Mind in the Lord's Prayer and Neville Goddard's Noah's Ark

I read again Rocco Errico's Setting a Trap For God, about the Aramaic "Lord's Prayer" in Matthew 6: 9-13. By it I understand better Ferrar Fenton's translation of the Greek version of the "Lord's Prayer." (I have written a post about Neville's "Standing Orders" based upon Fenton's translation with its Greek aorist imperative passive mood verbs: "must-be-being." An abbreviated version followed.) My new insight is that the Lord's prayer sets the attitude of mind one is to have when setting out to pray per Neville Goddard's technique: it is the mind of Noah.
Setting a Trap for God is the meaning of the Aramaic word slotha, which is translated into English as 'prayer.' The trap that is set is the mind. Slotha is to prepare the mind to receive the thoughts of God (Aramaic: the thoughts of Allaha/the Allahoota). It is the state of mind in which one is to pray. Errico follows the Lord's prayer point by point:

Our Father Which Art in Heaven

The heart and soul of the praying meditation is knowing in your heart when you start that Eil the Shaddai (Almighty), Allaha (the Godhood) is 'Dad.' I never in my life (nor would I ever) called my father abba, the Aramaic word for 'dad.' If you are starting your prayers with, "Abba, Father," you are missing the point, which is intimacy and familiarity, informality. God does not want it feigned. It is "Dad" in a normal family relationship. How do you speak to your father? You say your version of "Dad" with honor to him and you know that he hears you and cares. It is love, informal and uncomplicated. You love him and you know that he loves you. Like a child, you just talk to your father, "Dad," and say whatever is on your mind. Our Dad here, though, is in our minds (the heavens) in the skull. He is the Original Mind of our consciousness (if you are thinking, he is hearing—can’t not). The meditation is to think well.

Hallowed be thy Name

Now we get into a little weirdness in our frame of mind. We know, or at least we should know, that the Ineffable Most High God Eil is becoming manifest. His nature is moving toward full expression in and through us (we are the animating spirit of God within each of us, not these bodies). That full, mature expression is "set apart" as the goal we are destined to fulfill. We shall be his full and complete manifest expression of divine being. THAT is a sure thing.

Unfortunately, the Hebrew word for nature, shem, is also used for 'name' and is consistently mistranslated in the Bible as 'name' (that is my opinion alone, and while it is real lonely here, it is what I believe). God's nature must be being set apart in this endeavor to the endeavor's fulfillment.

Thy Kingdom Come

I almost always opt to understand the word 'kingdom' as the qualities or powers which qualify a person to be a king: "He has king-dom." Errico says here kingdom means 'counsel.' A king is a counselor. We, having by amnesia become completely ignorant from the flip into human consciousness, have gotten far afield from the Godly way things are supposed to be. This is far from his counsel. Independent, hateful, cynical and complaining, we need to be re-conformed to the mind, the "counsel" of God: to how things are supposed to be. Lest how are we ever going to fulfill the image of YHWH, the intended End-man of God's manifestation? God's order of things -- his counsel -- must be being restored.

Thy will be Done

So, what is being done here, I mean on earth, among us? God, the Ineffable, desired his form -- his whole, glorious being to be manifestly expressed in action. That is his will, his delight. He wants his goodness, love, and benevolence expressed. That is the "Jethro" ('his over-abundant grace') Moses understood, and that is GOOD. We want his blessings, and in our attitude we need to have in mind that HE wants them manifest, too. This is his "salvation": his glory above, and his glory below, all as one.

Let's take another look at the Lord's Prayer as Fenton translated it from the Greek:

"For your Father knows your necessities before you ask Him. Consequently, ye must pray in this way:
Our Father in the Heavens;
Your Name must be being hallowed;
Your Kingdom must be being restored.
Your Will must be being done both in Heaven and upon the Earth.
Give us to-day our to-morrow's bread;
And forgive us our faults, as we forgive those offending us,
For You would not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from its evil."
(Ferrar Fenton, The Lord's Prayer, The Complete Bible in Modern English.)

When it is said to pray "in this way," it is meant that the Creator, our dad, has our needs already in his mind; they are going to be met, so "HAVE THIS MIND." Just as Noah is the proper form of rest arrived at through the generative attitudes of "Antediluvian Patriarchs," approach your meditative rest with this underlying opinion: "Dad, this is your world, and this what you are doing. . . . you are all this, and these are your standing orders. Your standing orders MUST BE BEING DONE." These are the clean animals Noah took aboard his ark.

Let me amend Fenton's version with my understanding of Errico's Setting a Trap For God:

Dad (all that is Mind: Imagination, and beyond),
(In this world) Your nature must be being honored,
Your counsel must be being re-established,
(And) Your blessing must be being done,
In my mind and in the world.
(Therefore I trust you to) Abundantly bless me.
Forgive my divergences from your likeness just as I forgive others theirs. 
Make me your manifestation; 
Because you are Right,
And you are Power,
And you are Magnificence,
--Through all Infinite Eternity.

Have this heart-attitude as the flood of sleepiness lifts your thoughts above all the facts of this world. They thus lose their power of life below you. From the person you have been in this world be reconditioned to having no condition but to be the "son" of God: his imagination. Chill (wait there and enjoy it for awhile).

When you entered meditation to pray, you had in mind something you wanted, an experience you wanted to have. There is some subsequent thing you would necessarily experience if what you wanted were true. Believe it is true, and dream that experience. Imagine it so clearly that you are as much there as if it were real, so real that you can see the things there as "here" and feel them. Smell the smells and hear the voices. Move your consciousness to there. So condition yourself as being there that it becomes three-dimensional, a cubic reality, and you are thinking from that place because you are there. Feel its reality. And go to sleep while enjoying that place.

Believe that what you experienced was and IS true, albeit in the future. Just as we are going through time and things are constantly changing, what you experienced is a future moment you will inevitably encounter.

Vic Alexander's translation of Matthew 6: 8-13 from the ancient Aramaic:

. . . Your Father knows what you need before you ask for it. Therefore, this is how you shall pray:
Our heavenly Father, hallowed is your name,
Your Kingdom is come,
Your will is done, as in heaven so also on earth.
Give us the bread for our daily need.
And leave us serene, just as we also allowed others serenity.
And do not pass us through trial, except separate us from the evil one.
For yours is the Kingdom, the Power and the Glory
To the end of the universe, of all the universes." Amen!
(Periods in verses 9 and 10 altered to commas.)

What I am looking at is the fact that Dad knows our needs and we trust him, so we do not even ask for them: we have received them. We confidently assert in our minds, "your nature must be being hallowed, your counsel must be being come, your pleasure must be being done, as in our minds, so also on earth." We imagine not with imploring but in praise and thanksgiving.

For Jeff: Five: The Meaning of 'Christianity'

The craziest thing I have ever heard is that Christianity is a religion that worships a unique man who was God incarnate. Christianity is believing that we now have the same Anointing that the best of people had during the Epoch of Anointing of Israel (the period between the destruction of the Temples of Jerusalem), and that we can do the same things (and greater) as they did two thousand years ago here and now in this present age UNTO THE DOING.

Christianity is a practice of practical philosophy: that God is incarnate as us and that we can DO what he does.

No doing = no Christianity. Without doing "Christianity" is just a dead philosophy. Do what? Do what the Father of the Anointing does: IMAGINE IN FAITH UNTO REALITY. And teach.

Before There was Neville Goddard, There was Gerald Massey

Gerald Massey (1828-1907) is not everyone's cup of tea. I happen to love him. He saw the ancient Egyptian myths for what they were, and Christianity for what it is, which is nothing like Christians think it is. "Jesus Christ is a principle," he said, "And a principle can no more be born in a manger than time can step out of a grandfather clock." Sounds like a bitter tea, but he wasn't really. He was just knocking his head against the wall because of the knuckle-headed ignorant interpretation of the scriptures the Christians had.

The word 'Jesus' means "Yah (the Most High) saving; i.e., the Life-Giving Living Branch destroying what is to make way for what is to be." They packed a lot into words back then. 'Christ' is "the Anointed Action of Man to Ascend unto Proper Godhood by the Power and Wisdom of the Most High Who is Within Him." Symbolic words were a lot easier to deal with than having to say the whole thing each time.

You will notice that 'Jesus' pertains to God's action and 'Christ' pertains to man's action. That is the point of 'Jesus Christ': it is God and man TOGETHER, both acting to perfect man into proper Godhood. We have got Godhood, that is our natural nature; but it isn't proper: we are ignorant of how to be like the Ineffable Most High. We are here learning.

There are two fellows involved in this "Jesus Christ": 1) the intended End-man we are becoming is himself creating his world. He has been from before the Beginning and is the completed Manifestation of the Most High. He is the Ineffable YHWH in manifest Glory (we have a ways to go before we get there). His acting as the Ineffable is the 'Jesus' part.

2) The Beloved, or in Hebrew, "David," is the Maschiach -- the Messiah or "Christ." He is the sum culmination of all SPIRITUALLY ANOINTED things man does to become the intended End-man, who is God and thus David's father. His acting as man is the 'Christ' part.

Christ does whatever God leads him to do, so God is the father of David, our human actions. When David comes up to us and calls us Father, we will realize that we are YHWH manifest, the father of David.

These two fellows are real. They are what the Ineffable plans for them to be: concrete forms of goals not reached. But the Ineffable's plans are "as good as gold." He has already thought them into existence, and everything to get there is already named and on its way to becoming past. The Ineffable is inscrutable. So while Jesus Christ has never existed, he also never hasn't. Go look in the mirror. There he is.

For Jeff: Four

For Jeff: One

"You are not blessed above others, nor are any of us worthy of such a blessing. Those who were blessed by God in Biblical times, was done at his desire, pleasure and purpose. You cannot bless yourself, only God did as there was no other to bless him. Keep this in mind; Proverbs 23:7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee."

You certainly have a low opinion of God and men, Jeff. No modern men are worthy of God's blessing? You have never heard of Jethro: "good measure, pressed down, and shaken together"? You must go to the most depressing church in North America. All scripture and no living spiritual dynamics. I think I'd slit my wrists. Proverbs 23: 7 applies to you and your church: they say, "Eat and drink . . . " like they love you, but their heart is not with you: (". . . you worthless worm"). Learn to read what the scriptures actually say.

"Cast down these imaginations at the feet of Jesus. Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."

That is why I teach what I do: what is true, and honest, and just, and pure, and of good report. Believing not only that they were accurately reported in the past, but that they are real, alive, and effectual to be practiced in this day and age. God is real and alive here, now, and when it works, you have found him. Christianity is the living of a spiritually anointed life, not a belief that such only happened thousands of years ago. And there are millions and millions and millions of other Christians all over the world who live spiritually attuned lives. Not in your neighborhood? I'd move.

"I will bring to light that you exist at Gods grace not by your own accord. If you are not in Christ and he in you, you are antichrist. Did you die for the remission of all others sins? I think not. The Holy Spirit prompts us but doesn't speak as we would understand. The Lord God gives us authority over ourselves, which is a the spirit of self-control. You need to test the spirit you converse with in your conscience mind, are you aware of how to do this?"

Yes, I exist at God's grace, for which I try to fulfill his purpose for my existence. But I am not an other Christ (the meaning of 'anti-christ'). I, like you, am the original Christ in the form of me, just as you are the original Christ in the form of you. We "died" from the Heavenly form of consciousness we embodied to become us ignorant men and women (and whatever). This I learned from God as he gave me understanding of his prompting. HE showed me. I do not expect you to understand it. Up until that revelation I had been exercising self-lordship: I decided what I wanted to do, which I came to see was rebellion against his lordship. I had no faith in his faithfulness. Repenting, I cast self-control out of myself and relied wholly upon him. Then accepted me and filled me with his Holy Spirit. Yes, Christ has come in the flesh: my flesh and your flesh and every other human's flesh. From before the Beginning of time. We "die" once and then keep doing these lives until we be perfected unto Life again, better than before.

"Can you recreate yourself in your own image?"

Actually, that is what I am trying to teach people to do: to submit to the image of God and allow that to be recreated as the state we live in. We create the world we live in; it mirrors our manifestation. THAT is what the Law is: the nature of God manifests and is mirrored in its out-picturing.

"Can you bring the end to all things? Were you there before the beginning? Did you create Satan. Can you destroy Satan or is he destroying you? Can you discern the difference between a thought and a memory?"

It has not entered the mind of man what God has in store for him, but yes, according to the original Genesis 1: 1, as the Beginning the Son of God we were there before the beginning. Christ could not have been crucified for us from BEFORE the beginning of the universe if we did not already exist in the mind of God. That foreknowledge of God was me. All of me. All my history, zits and all. I am just going through the motions of his manifestation now. I am overcoming my ignorance now, thank you. This we are all destined to do: to fulfill scripture.

"As you delve off into Hebrew mysticism and the supra-natural remember this; God our Lord was so displeasured with the Nicolaitans; (were one of the heretical sects that plagued the churches at Ephesus and at Pergamum, according to Revelation 2:6,15. Irenaeus identifies them as followers of Nicolas, one of the seven chosen in Acts 6, and as men who "lead lives of unrestrained indulgence". He also relates them to Gnosticism) he used the word; hate. Why? It was the disobedience of Gods First Commandment, (Idolatry) and it led others away from the truth of God."

I have also heard of Nicolaitans being associated with clergy who separate their class from the commoners in the congregation, the laity, fancying themselves to be superior and special. A life of "unrestrained indulgence"? Idolatry? What are you reading, Jeff?

From here Jeff tries to psychoanalyze me and gives me an altar call. I can only imagine that he is a young member, high school age probably, of a self-righteous anti-charismatic group who has cribbed notes of pious sounding things from his teachers and mish-mashes them all together to sound grave and religious. He may sincerely want to know Christ within him, but his church says what the Bible says is all that we can hear from God, so our faith has to be wholly only in that, the Bible. Donald Trump has a word for it: Sad.

For Jeff: Three

"What you heard was your own thoughts, memories and imaginations at work and possibly the evil one himself. God has no need of speaking to us directly except thru his word. Your imagination or conscience has lead you to a point of idolatry, self-indulgence, self-righteousness. You are being deceived by the evil one as described in old Aramaic."

I really, really think you had better read that part about blaspheming the Holy Spirit in Mark 3: 30 again, Jeff. The Holy Spirit is doing great things, and you say she is the evil one. Do you really want to do that? I wonder what you mean by "the evil one as described in old Aramaic." What old Aramaic description? Have you ever wondered why there is so much about Satan in the New Testament and almost nothing about him in the Old? Mostly Job and Zechariah. You would think that the Jews would have been alluding to his work and warning against it to their own people at every turn. But instead there is almost nothing.

The reason there is so little about Satan in the Old Testament is that he, the adversary, is our ignorance. That is what the Old Testament is designed to defeat, and the people of that age understood that: that 'Satan' is our ignorance. Why harp about some being that isn't there? I know well about the Serpent in Genesis. The Serpent was the ancient representative of Wisdom. We are in Genesis dealing with representative symbols. Moses learned things in Exodus and wrote about them in Genesis. Adam and Eve represent God's consciousness and its power to become what it believes itself to be. In becoming man's consciousness, the spirit that imbues man with Life, God's consciousness (us!), has to enter into an amnesia as to its Godhood. It has to really think that it is just a man in all his or her ignorance. That transition into ignorance is the door consciousness/imagination/the spirit that we are has to go through to get on the road to becoming even more like the Ineffable Most High -- to correct the defect inherent in us. Before the transition, the Glorious Wisdom of God (look up the word 'serpent'; it means a shining and glorious one) in our consciousness says, "This is worthwhile," and as we enter into the amnesia of human consciousness, IT COMES WITH US. "On your belly you shall go!" Wisdom prods us toward God, and we in our ignorance resist it, thus blaspheming the Holy Spirit within us.

I am not saying that there are not hoards of demons running around, but if there are, they are the manifestations of our ignorance. Ever notice how when you cast a demon out of a person the effect is that they believe clearly? The reason there so much about Satan in the New Testament is influence from Persian Zoroastrianism's Azure Mazda. Misunderstanding their own edited and corrupted scriptures, many Jews became dualists believing God to be separate and divided from us, and themselves as subject to the God of Evil as the God of Good. But the Serpent of Old who deceiveth the whole world IS OUR AMNESIA BORN, SELF-INFLICTED IGNORANCE. Fight to defeat it in yourself by believing the effectual blood of Jesus shed abroad for us. 'Blood' means real and actual present power. Hence the "wine" at the wedding at Cana from the water of purification. 'Believing' means doing, Jeff. Practice doing.

For Jeff: Two

" God did not speak to you audibly,"  This is the line that compelled me to respond to negatively to Jeff. What audacity, what chutzpah, to judge another person's most precious spiritual experiences! Dude, I was the one who was there, and God as Jesus Christ being crucified before my mind's eyes turned his face towards me, yes, in my imagination, and SAID, AUDIBLY, "Come unto Me." I know my mind's voices, and this was none of them. It was not in the imagination that I heard it; it was in the brain's nervous system, in the hearing lobe of the brain where electrical impulses from the ears transition into heard sounds. I HEARD it PHYSICALLY even though it had not come through either ear. This is the hallmark anchor to my faith: I KNOW -- ABSOLUTELY KNOW -- THAT THIS WAS REAL. And for you to tell me that it did not happen because it does not accord with your mixed up unbelieving understanding of the scriptures tells me that you are two points worse than an idiot and a fool. No offense.

"you mirrored your thoughts as you would look into a mirror. God does not speak to us as we understand or envision in our own imagination. Believe me in this, you would be able to distinguish between your own conscience thinking, memories, and his still silent voice."

WWWHHHAAATTT???? I mirrored my thoughts as I would look into a mirror? What does that even mean? I don't mean to be mean or cynical, but I am 67 years old, have been through the military, a thirty year aircraft inspection career, an AA, a BTh, two graduate programs, raised a family, been healed, am well read, etc., etc., and have never heard of what you made up. I understand what you probably mean because I can read, but I do not see how you can associate it with what I experienced. If you pick up any number of Christian Guideposts magazines you will find numerous references to people -- ordinary Joes and Jills like you and I -- who HEARD, AUDIBLY, God speak to them. No mirroring. What on earth makes you think that God cannot or will not speak to us? How do you learn if you are not listening to Him? Do you not know how God speaks with us? Yes, he has a still, quiet voice, but his sheep also HEAR HIS VOICE. Are you one of his sheep, Jeff? I think you want to be, but for the moment you are the one calling God a liar.

"There is no need for such interaction during this age. (Church Age) Paul stated, that all these things would come to and end and have, long ago."

For those who have not studied the Bible much, God has supposedly dealt with man in different ways during different times. For instance, before the fall of man in the Garden of Eden God dealt with man in a state of innocence differently than he dealt with man after the fall. Differently before the giving of the Law through Moses than afterward. Differently during the period of Israel's Anointing between the destruction of the first and second temples than afterward. These different administrations of God's dealing with man are called dispensations. Jeff here is alluding to the differing dispensations during the Anointing, when Jesus Christ was active among men in Israel, and the present "church age." The problem for Jeff is that he is wrong. He is reading 1st Corinthians 13: 10, in which Paul states "when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part shall be done away with." His teachers have told him that "that which is perfect" is the Bible in its final canon. But everywhere in the Bible that which is to become perfect is the saints themselves. His teachers aren't getting there any time soon, so they palm the perfection off to the Bible. It is just to excuse and hide their own failings, for having no actual spiritual depth or maturity themselves. They find plenty of ignorant, gullible suckers to follow and pay them for preaching a lifeless Word.

Another big problem here is that the Bible we have is anything but perfect. Not that it was not written perfectly, but what we have nothing like the original Bible. Yes, what we have may follow the Massorite text, but the Massorites kept the original text IN THE MARGINS, the Massorah. The main text they read from and which our translators translated was the EDITED text. Knowing neither the language nor history for beans, not knowing the Massorah, and having a different theology altogether from the Jews, they translated the corrupt, edited text to fit their religious assumptions. When you use the King James, as I do to find passages and to find out what Bullinger has to say, you have to translate it back into the original, ancient meanings -- otherwise you get all screwed up.

Because the Bible is as horribly faulty as we ourselves are, WE NEED SUCH INTERACTION AS GOD'S SPEAKING TO US AND THE OTHER GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT LIKE NEVER BEFORE! And bless God, they are there. You might not want them, Jeff, might not believe them or know how to find or accept them, but not yet being perfect myself (!), I bless God with all my heart for their presence and effectiveness. My God lives here, in me and as me, and none of these things have come to an end. Just because they are not in your world, do not think that they are not in ours. We make our own worlds, Jeff. As God, we make our own worlds.

Onward to For Jeff: Three.

For Jeff: One

I received an e-mail a few days ago from "Jeff." Jeff had a lot to say about how far off track I have gotten from orthodox Christianity and had much encouragement about how to get back in line. I am afraid I dismissed Jeff rather brusquely, and it has not settled well with me all the places he was off and how little I did to correct him. This is what happens when we leave religion in order to find God: they want to correct us, and we want to correct them. Almost point for point, we each think the other is wrong.

I just sent a second e-mail to Jeff apologizing for the first and asking him if he wanted to have a mature and balanced dialog:

Jeff,

I apologize for dismissing you out of hand in my previous reply. I started to use your e-mail as teaching points in my blog as they are excellent examples of Christian confusion about the scriptures, but as I got near the end I realized that you might just be a well meaning Christian and not really a troll. At least you are reading my material even though you do not understand it. All I can really tell about you is that you attend an anti-charismatic church and that you might fancy becoming a pastor yourself some day.

If you want to have a mature and balanced conversation, tell me something about yourself. Do you really want to learn something about the Bible, or were you just looking to goof on someone?

Dan Steele

but he had already blacklisted me and the e-mail was returned.

I do not know Jeff from Adam (unless he is my cousin Jeff in Westminster). He has me at a disadvantage in that he has almost six hundred posts of mine to judge my doctrines by, and I have only one e-mail from him. Inasmuch as I cannot contact Jeff to engage in a healthy dialog, and his points against me were such excellent examples of Christian error, I am going to answer a number of Jeff's arguments in a short series of posts. Let's see if I can hold to logic and Truth and not get cynical about the ironies of doubt involved.

Jeff's e-mail was like reading a Jehovah's Witness Watchtower Magazine, wherein they do not realize that Jesus in the New Testament IS Jehovah. You wonder how they could have such an adamant doctrine based upon such absolute error. 

My credentials do not count five cents for someone who disagrees with me, just as Jeff's are not worth a plug nickle to me. But briefly, I was raised among Congregational Methodists and the Methodist Youth Fellowship in the San Gabriel Valley 1950's and 60's. I spent the year after the Summer of Love (1967-68) in San Francisco and the next four years in the Navy during Vietnam. In the Navy I was exposed to more exotic religions, and I greatly expanded my reading of spiritual texts in the 1970's. I learned about Hinduism, Buddhism, Islamic (Sufi) mysticism, spiritualism, and learned Transcendental Meditation, but it was in a different, occult type of meditation I encountered what I considered to be a demon.

The demon, I observed, had been grooming me for possession which it could not accomplish without getting me to lower my authority to it, which was naturally below mine. Suddenly seeing the demon for what it was, I demurred, and left the meditation. Someone there -- some conscious and spiritually powerful person -- had opened my mind's eyes to see the demon without needing my permission to affect my eyes. He was naturally above my authority, knew what was going on in me (and was controlling from above), and I realized that he must be Lord and that I was going the wrong way!

That same week, a close friend was saved at the House of Praise in Kaimuki, Hawaii, and the next week I was saved there, too. Or at least I thought. I acknowledged that Jesus was what the Bible says he is, the Son of God and our Lord and Savior, and I had given him my life, but he did not baptized me with the Holy Spirit BECAUSE HE DID NOT ACCEPTED ME.

I am sure this causes Jeff mental rejection, if he reads it, because he has been taught that if you confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is Lord -- and I did confess and believe sincerely -- you ARE saved. And this is the crux of the matter between us: the general Christians' idea of believing is not necessarily what the Bible means by believing. When at Grace Bible Church in Honolulu I did surrender my life to God -- in actuality and not in mere acceptance of doctrine -- he did baptize me with the Holy Spirit. The glory of the moment, the euphoria and the ecstasy, is something you do not forget. I have been a tongue-speaking Pentecostal now for over forty years. The Baptism in the Holy Spirit does not happen automatically when one believes just because it is a doctrine. It is an actual, demonstrative event of imbuement and infilling by God's action when one is prepared to accept it and God accepts the person. It does not happen to a person without feeling, emotions, and expression. It is not our definition which changes, but our innermost being.

Anyway, to make this short, after Jesus spoke to me in a vision at the House of Praise I decided to find out what he has said to others. Having barely gotten out of high school -- no college prep classes, no remedial classes, no junior college classes, and no money -- I was accepted at Melodyland School of Theology in Anaheim, California. They were being innovative: allow Bible Study students to do the upper division classes and petition for a bachelor degree after they get their AA. The accreditation committee shut that down as soon as they heard about it, but I was already in, so I got grandfathered. And everything came together for me to stay there three and a half years for a degree in Theology. Then I had a year and a half at William Carey International (U.S. Center for World Mission) for a cert in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages, and a master's degree in Intercultural Studies at still another seminary/university. I have been studying the Bible, ancient history, religions, and philosophies for over forty years. And yes, overseas mission work, too.

Unlike Jeff, most certainly, I work diligently to DISPROVE the things I am taught. I know have been misled before, and I know that demons of ignorance are always working on EVERYBODY, including our teachers. I only keep what Word I cannot disprove, and my understanding is constantly, progressively evolving through revision.  Everything I have learned and experienced and proven has led to the view point I now have. Not only was I saved from occultism, I was also saved from the unbelieving "orthodox" Christianity Jeff represents. I would like to save him from what he now thinks is faith, and if I can convince you too, dear reader, it would be an honor to share the Living Christ with you.

So, Jeff's e-mail went like this:

"Dan,

"Please, you are entitled to your view point but the view point you perceive is leading you astray from the essence of our Lord."

Jeff, by the word 'but' you negate what you said. And I disagree that my point of view is leading me away FROM the essence of our Lord. In fact, just the opposite is happening. My point of view is leading me TO the essence of Jesus Christ. The thing is, your view point is keeping you from the essence of our Lord. You cannot accept him, because the real Jesus Christ is against your doctrines. Just as when I was in the occult, you are going the wrong way -- not as badly, but degree of unsaved does not matter. You do not accept the real, biblical Christ, and he does not accept you.

"We are not God, you are not God."

You have a bigger problem than you think, Jeff. I know you think God created Creation ex nihilo -- out of nothing and separate from himself, but that is not the case. Most simply: there is nothing but God. He himself -- his intelligence -- is the No-Thing he created everything out of, for there was and is nothing else. There is nothing separate or divided from him: we are his manifestation. His manifestation, his form, him in form.

The mechanism by which this is coming about is a little complex: he had no corporalness but his imagination, the "Child" of Proverbs chapter 8. His intelligence is the power to become what it imagines itself to be -- the "Eve" of Adam's desire. This is transcendence: Intelligence imagines it IS quantum particles, and it IS quantum particles. BANGO. Quantum particles have been proven to have intelligence. Duh; they ARE intelligence. God imagines experiences, and the particles FACILITATE those experiences. They occur naturally, for he is nature. They, he, we, are all ONE. Welcome to the meaning of e'had in Deuteronomy 6: 4 -- everything altogether is one. The Ineffable is EVERYTHING ON ALL LEVELS OF BEING, all at once. Really, he the only game in town. THAT is our God -- a really, really big show: ONE BIG GUY! -- too marvelous to imagine. And we are in there, too! If you don't believe me, just ask him.

In your philosophy of creation ex nihilo, separate and divided, there are TWO: God and Creation. Separate, we are a god unto ourselves. THAT, Jeff, is the big heresy: 'dual' is the blaspheme of the Holy Spirit who testifies day and night that we are ONE. Advaita: without division: there cannot be two! The deal about the blaspheme of the Holy Spirit never being forgiven is not that if you do it you can never be forgiven, it is that WE ARE ALWAYS DOING IT AND CAN NEVER MAKE REAL, SPIRITUAL PROGRESS UNTIL WE STOP THINKING AS SEPARATE AND DIVIDED FROM HIM AND ACCEPT THAT THE ONENESS OF GOD INCLUDES US!! We are the Ineffable Most High doing whatever it is that he is doing in and through us -- like it or lump it. Look in the mirror. That which you see is Him.

Don't think, "Ugh!"; think, "That thing is destined for glory!" Not the body you see. That is a facilitation. The inner man. The inner man is God correcting a unlikeness: what we were before as God's consciousness was in one way unlike the Ineffable Most High. We are in a do-over to correct a defect. Who says God can't have a do-over?

Okay, I am going to work on For Jeff: Two.

Regarding Vic Alexander's "Story of Jesus From His Own Words"

I do whatever I can to support Victor Alexander's translating of the ancient Aramaic Bible. This is self-serving: I want to know as closely as I can what the ancients actually said, and I know that the Hebrew text has been extensively edited and that the Western versions of the Bible are hardly worth squat doctrinally. Only their page numbers are true. I use Bullinger's Companion Bible as a reference to where things are. That, and Bullinger wrote his own Bible in the companion margin (read the right text, not the left text). I want Alexander to get on with it!

I am neither blind nor untrained in biblical translation and interpretation. I know that Alexander's translations have some problems: they are idiomatic and not literal, and Alexander himself has a conservative, historical-literalist perspective. Nevertheless, his are a step up from deceptive translations (yes, they intentionally aim to deceive you) of corrupted texts. Deceptive how? They intimate a dualistic reality and inculcate a false worldview: that God is separate from us, distant and far. Were there a hell, they would burn in it.

So I got a copy of Story of Jesus From His Own Words. It isn't like I don't know the story of Jesus, but hey, support Vic. For myself, I am glad I did. What I learned was worth the bucks. I have always had a problem with 'Allaha.' Why not just go with 'God' and know that it means more to us that its original 'Good'? No, explains Alexander, Allaha represents the Allahoota, the whole Godhead -- Godhood itself: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. God doesn't parcel himself out like we do to him: Allaha is the whole entity, and we are in it. I just got my money's worth. The rest is gravy.

The rest is not as I supposed it would be, a more scholarly discussion on the words Jesus (Eashoa) used to describe himself. It is more a compilation of passages from the Gospels, the Epistles, and the Old Testament which present the picture of who Jesus was and is. I was not disappointed, but I had to be understanding. Vic is neither a theologian nor an esotericist. He is a translator, and a damn fine one at that. He knows the ancient Aramaic and cuneiform languages. What he reads is the impression he gets, and the Story of Jesus From His Own Words reflects his reading -- literal human characters, Satan, and all. If you read as I, parsing the symbols embedded in the stories, you will have to do that here, too. Alexander does not interpret; he reports: this is what the Bible says about Jesus. You will get a much better understanding of what the Bible actually says about Jesus here than you might get just reading your Bible.

One thing the Bible does not say about Jesus in the Old Testament is that his name is Jesus, or in the Aramaic, Eashoa. Alexander understands 'Eashoa' to mean 'the Life-Giving, Living Branch' (see his comments on Mark 1: 1 in his New Testament). This is not really different from my understanding of 'Jesus' meaning 'Yah, Saving' (my take from Bullinger, comments on Israel in Genesis 32: 28, in which God is the doer (!) of the verb portion of the name). You just got your money's worth out of reading this post.

Here are two things that are really, really fine gravy to me:

'Moshiach' means 'anointed,' and is an adjective. It is an act of consecration. The idea comes up (for me) in the Book of Jeremiah in the announcement of the seventy years of captivity in Babylon (chapters 23-25 and 29), and in the Book of Daniel in the explanation of the seventy sevens (chapter 9). The anointed was the whole period of the seventy sevens -- an epoch of Israel's history, not a man. The anointed is not a person other than you. THAT was the whole point of it: He anoints YOU for a season, and then the extra bennies are cut off and you have to stand on your own faithfulness, your own integrity. Per Rehnborg, the exemplary person known as 'Jesus' did, and died, and was seen again risen by 'Peter' and 'Paul.' Excuse me while I cry.

The second new information I got from the book was that the person Marqus, who wrote the Book of Mark, took on the name John (perhaps out of respect for another John, or to associate the meaning of the word with himself and his ministry) and is the source, if not the author, of the Book of John. Yes, take it with a grain of salt. This, as I understand it, is what Alexander understands to have happened. I love it, because I believe Marqus (and ALEXANDER DOES NOT AGREE WITH ME) to have been an Indian Therapeut (a Buddhist missionary healer of those sent out by Ashoka) who came to understand the thought and intention of Moses in the Torah, and subsequently attempted in the last days of the anointing upon the nation to inform the Jews of what their scriptures were really about. Marqus invented the Jesus of scripture from the inspiration of either or both Gautama and the exemplary character who may have been his teacher of BIBLICAL Judaism. (See the Christian Lindtner Theory: Lindtner detects underlying Sanskrit works in Mark; http://www.jesusisbuddha.com/.)

Marqus, by the way, would have meandered over a period of many years from India to Judea and perhaps to Alexandria in Egypt. Much of that time may have been spent in Persia, where he might have been much influenced by Zoroastrianism with its Azure Mazda God of Good and Evil -- the source of Satan and hell in his philosophy and understanding of Jeremiah's good figs and bad fig -- thus placing them (Satan and hell) in our Bible. As I read Genesis, the serpent was our "ignorancing," and we did it to ourselves.

It is kind of weird: I have read all the New Testament and Bible, of course, and none of the material should be new to me, but Alexander's arrangement and comments have tweaked and illumined my understanding of what I thought I knew was the story of 'Jesus.' No regrets.

Rehnborg Revisited: The New Age of Faith, "Living is He that Lord "

What to take away from Rehnborg is: "Living is He that Lord" (Jeremiah 23: 7; Alexander, note). God proves that he is here. That was the purpose of the seventy sevens, the four hundred and ninety year Anointing of Consecration upon the Jews, which was the context for the coming of Jesus Christ.

The Jews there were an everyman, an example of every man. The temple is the pattern of a human. You are the temple. And just as "living is he that Lord who brought the house of Israel from Egypt," living is he that Lord who shall rise and perform all his word regarding that temple. Regarding you.

This is true, BUT, the special anointing gets cut off after a certain time. Seven is spiritual perfection. Ten, administrative. Seventy sevens is a perfect time given for you to get your act together regarding your purpose and faith. And just short of that perfect time "the anointing shall die" (Daniel 9: 26; me). You are on your own, kid. And the question from Jeremiah is: are you a good fig, kid, or a bad fig? If you are a good fig, as the figure of speech goes, you will complete your faithfulness on your own according to your own integrity and love. Jesus was good and faithful, and as our example rested fully upon the faithfulness of his loving God. He KNEW that God is good and faithful. He had that proof from the days of anointing. "When it works, you have found Him." He had found Him.

Loss of the anointing meant nothing to Jesus: "He saved others; himself he cannot save." Paul left his friend sick in Troas; Neville left his wife, Bill, ill in the hospital. But Eil, the Almighty, gives you the opportunity to perfect your faithfulness and your love: "the graciousness of your childhood is recalled unto you, the kindness of your hopefulness as you walked behind me in the wilderness in a land that cannot be cultivated" (Jeremiah 2: 2; Alexander). He had read the book.

The eternal Godhead wants to be noticed, accepted, honored, and loved -- accounted for as a real person, capable and loving. Bad figs don't get it. They see the miracles, they receive the evidence that it works, but they just do not get it -- that the anointing only works because there is a loving Agent acting behind it -- that Living is He that Lord. THAT is the new age of faith: He lives, and he loves, and he is faithful; so be faithful, and love, and live.

When you are trusting God to the extent Jesus did, even if he never was a man, you trust God THROUGH the experience you are having. Negative as it may be. It isn't faith and trust if everything has to be strawberries and ice cream for you while you wait for the manifestation of what you have desired and procedurally imagined. This ISN'T a mechanical universe; it is a manifestation of that Lord's nature. He has spoken to me and to many thousands of others. He is thinking, feeling and deliberate. And your love is never going to be love until it actually is.

The Rehnborg Hypotheses: Jesus and the New Age of Faith

Carl F. Rehnborg (1887-1973) invented multi-vitamin and multi-mineral diet supplements and multi-level marketing. Before these he marketed in China (the 1920's and 30's), where he was oft set upon by Christian missionaries' arguments for Jesus Christ. A rational man, these did not win him over, but he did spend the rest of his life making rational sense out of Jesus, out of Christ, to himself. Over forty years he researched, penned, and revised his conclusions into a book. After he passed, his book was privately published as Jesus and the New Age of Faith. In the book he wrestles the nonsense out of Christianity and proceeds to analyze what delivered such an information as Jesus Christ unto the history of man.

I have read the book a number of times, and while I would argue that Jesus as a man never existed, Rehnborg notes that the persons portrayed as Peter and Paul experienced something after the life of Jesus that caused them to become fearless martyrs to the resurrection of Jesus. What that something was gives me pause. Fear, euphoria, and wonder, too, even if Jesus as a man never existed. Simply put, Rehnborg believed that the human character Jesus believed in the Rule of God. That God is good. That God's words are true, and that He is faithful to them. Jesus understood the promises of God made to Jeremiah and Daniel regarding the Anointing of Consecration upon the Jews for the four hundred and ninety year period which was coming to an end during his lifetime.

In short, Jesus staked his life that he was to be the Suffering Servant and that God in his goodness and faithfulness would resurrect him as Messiah. He sent Judah to reveal him and walked his way, if you would, to the cross.

For all you Neville Goddard fans, this is something to consider. Jesus in the story trusted God this much, and in Galilee Peter saw Jesus risen as Lord. It might have been a psychic vision, but psychic visions can have cubic reality to them. Psychic might be the "other form" in which the disciples on the road saw him. We know that the church has made a mockery of the Rule of God by offering instead an easy salvation by serving them, but the early disciples preferred to die rather than deny that Jesus was risen for serving God. It makes you wonder: in what way did they see him that they would give up their lives to horrible deaths?

Neville Goddard's Student Lindell

Be Nice turned me on to these videos of Neville Goddard's student, Lindell: https://vimeo.com/user3512078/videos. Lindell lectured for about thirty years at the Metaphysical Art Theater in Simi Valley, California. I do not know why there is so little of him on the internet. Occasionally he smiles and laughs like Robin Williams.

"Whoever maintains hope until the end, shall live. And this hope of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the universe, as a testimony for all the nations, and then the end shall come" (Matthew 24:13-14; Alexander).

The Bible is only about one person in the whole universe: God . . . as he is you. The qualities and powers of God in you are the Kingdom. These qualities and powers of God IN YOU shall be preached in all universe BY YOU, and then the end shall come. You will notice that Lindell is simply giving his witness: "This is the truth." Not until we are doing the Kingdom and teaching it to others shall we be promoted to the end. Because this is an important facet of God's nature--it is what He is doing right now!

In Genesis 1 the Ineffable began a program to conform Its outer image to Its inner image. The Paradise is Its symbolic goal, the end of Revelation Its manifestation. The 'twain is us being conformed to Its innermost so that we are Its just emanation. It is open-ended! We will eternally be conforming what is before us to Its character and nature. For the objective of the Law is the Law. As Lindell says, Its fulfillment is seeking us.

Also said Be Nice, "I must admit that I don't find any video from Bill Donahue to say something about Imagination. The closest video I find is this one but is not complete...'Your Success Door Is Locked'
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5m9gtjeTcw

"He only speaks for meditation, but he is not clear what he means with that :) Neville is clear, you are clear, but him so far no! Maybe I will find some video that explains better what he means, but until now I do not find any. I must admit he has passion, and the one work that he supposed to do he do it well. He says, 'Don't believe any Religion out there, none.' Same as Neville, same as you, same as everyone who has found the Truth, which is Imagination Creates Reality and is the ONE GOD!!!"

I found a little more on Lindell:

Why We Will Never See the Other Time Travel

I believe we can and do time travel. In Neville Goddard's book, The Law and the Promise, on page 19 there is the story of a woman who had been badly injured as a child in a fall from a swing. She had chronic back pain due to the way she fell. Decades later, having heard Neville speak of revision, she went back in her imagination to that moment she landed badly. With great effort, she came to clearly imagine landing correctly. In her mind, she was there, and as the little girl she was then she ran and showed her mother, without effort, how she could land from the swing correctly, over and over and over. And soon the pain she had suffered from for decades disappeared.

That is how healing and revision work: you imagine not having the problem as though it never existed, and that past manifests in your future. But many people fantasize about traveling in time to times and places future or past. Probably will never happen. And here is why: the earth is traveling in its spin at about 1000 mph (U.S. miles per hour). And the earth around the sun at 66,000 mph. And the sun is traveling around the Milky Way Galaxy at about 483,000 mph. And our galaxy is traveling through the universe at 1,300,000 mph. To go back in time one hour in exactly the spot you are sitting in, you have to go back to exactly where the spot was one hour ago. Good luck figuring out where that was and hitting it right on the button.

Neville Goddard, the Aramaic Bible, and a Salt Block: How to Take Bill Donahue

I do not mean to short Bill Donahue. The guy has made a bold move to come out strongly against God's arch-enemy, religion. He puts on a fantastic show and has pulled all kinds of arcane information together to bolster his claims. But we have a saying, "Take it with a grain of salt." In fact, pull up at the animal feed store and buy a block of salt. An animal lick, and keep it handy. Because Bill does not understand a lot of the symbolism in the Bible, and for him, if you don't understand it, it must be aliens.

I am joking, but seriously, I don't want anyone to get misled into any weird cult ideas. Mr. Donahue does espouse the belief that Ezekiel describes alien spacecraft and has other strange leanings, but by-and-large he does have a pretty good grasp of what the Bible's authors were talking about. The thing is, in some places he is wrong. Get your sense of symbolism from Neville. But keep in mind that in some places Neville was wrong. In places I am wrong. I can show you places where Victor Alexander is wrong. We all are wrong, so do not build up this attitude that anyone is always correct. Take EVERYTHING with a grain of salt.

We are all nuts, but what I like about Donahue is he knows it. He has had the big, "Oh." He is consciously trying to overcome his ignorance. The trouble is he won't not teach what he does not understand. YOU need to understand that if a guy is a loose canon, YOU are dealing with a loose canon. Stay out of its way when the ship pitches!

I have no problem whatsoever with there being life throughout the universe. I expect it. The Light who created the universe is Life. Duh. And you have to wonder what technology the ancients had that could determine the functions of the parts of the brain, the elementary composition of the universe, and their associations with the spirit of God. But that could all be in-house among our ancient ancients. Christians think that the whole universe is only six thousand years old, and all progress has happened in that span. Few believe that men were more than cave men ten thousand years ago. The earth is about four BILLION years old. Nothing had to be brought here.

Was there a human Jesus? I don't know, I WASN'T THERE. I know the Old Testament is allegorical, but were there historical human counterparts to the stories? A human, Abraham-like forefather to the Jews, for instance? I don't know, I WASN'T THERE. I can only deal with the real stuff here I can KNOW. There is stuff I do not know, SO I KEEPS MY MOUTH SHUT.

While I am waiting to learn things conclusively, I glean what I can from Neville and Victor and Bill and a host of others . . . and I actively seek to DISPROVE whatever nut-case information teachers put out that does not jive with the objective reality (whether physical, mental, or spiritual) I have EXPERIENTIAL EVIDENCE of and KNOW to be true. I SEE Jethro, God's blessings on my life. I HEARD Jesus speak to me. I WATCHED my arm grow out. I SEE the world mirroring my beliefs like Neville and Gregg Braden said it will. And the intelligent Light Donahue speaks of? I think that is the 'Jesus' who said to me AUDIBLY in my brain, "Come unto Me." For insight of the function of the pineal gland I owe Mr. Donahue a debt of gratitude. But aliens? Come on.

Okay, so maybe they have been here. Maybe we were seeded from them. Maybe the technology was theirs. So what? It does not change a thing. Only God matters.

Perhaps it would help to have a more accurate, idiomatic translation of the Bible. Something closer to what the authors of the Bible actually wrote. I know there are faults in it, but the faults are largely in the comments and notes, not in the translated text. I invite you to consider Victor Alexander's translation: http://www.v-a.com/bible/AAM/

Bill Donahue is Teaching What the Church was Supposed to Teach

Commenter "Be Nice" sent me a link to one of Bill Donahue's YouTube.com videos. Bill apparently was a regular Christian pastor who realized that "Christianity" actually denies biblical truth. So he quit religion to find God. His teaching is very reminiscent of Neville's, except he is not into the Law as much as he is into meditation. Figuring out how to meditate from Neville's lectures is like pulling teeth; Donahue pushes it down your throat.

I used the term higgedly-piggedly in reference to Bill's associations in his teaching, and the term still applies. He pulls stuff from all over the universe - things which have nothing to do with one another - and sticks them all together to build "proofs" to prove his points. Maybe he doesn't realize that it isn't necessary. I think it is an Evangelical thing. Like thinking that 'Abraham' means 'Father of Many Nations' without realizing that if 'Abraham' meant Father of Many Nations, God wouldn't have had to explain it. Abraham means something like 'MERCIFUL FATHER,' and because we are the Merciful Father, we are the Father of many nations. When you hear him explain 'Elohim,' you will see what I mean (Elohim simply means “Over the flames,” says Alexander).

BUT, otherwise Mr. Donahue's teachings are quite informative and very interesting, especially if you are interested in metaphysics. The idea that God is an intelligent, invisible Light to which the active pineal gland is sensitive is enlightening. No wonder the Biblical technique Neville learned requires falling asleep while dwelling in the desired end in the imagination -- the pineal gland is active and the message is broadcast to the Light.

The first link below is to one of Bill Donahue's websites. Subsequent links are to YouTube.com videos I have watched. As actor Bob Cummings used to say at the introduction to his television show, "I think you are going to like this."
